Very nice for the price I paid (SX-L). Cannot imagine anyone paying over 40K for one.

Pros:

1) Nice materials inside
2) Good ride balance - not too hard or soft
3) Roomy
4) Great feature content
5) Smooth, strong and quiet engine. Mileage is good so far

Cons:

1) Interior fit is awful in spots
2) Poorly rated standard Hankook tires are noisy and apparently useless in bad weather
3) Steering is too light and has no feel. Constant corrections needed on open highway.
4) Passenger seat mounted too low with no height adjustment
5) Unable to display digital and analog speedometer in MPH at the same time - one has to be KMPH. Makes no sense. Any country will be one or the other - never both.

I haven't really noticed the tire performance to be poor in "bad" weather yet. So far my bad has been several inches of rain and it goes through that just fine. I will have to see how they do on snow this winter. I haven't even noticed a digital spedo yet but I will see if I can find it later and test, I like analog better for it anyways. Several Toyotas use digital spedo only and I cut those cars from the list immediately, that is really annoying to me. Where is the interior fit awful to you? I also haven't heard any real noise from my tires, are yours loud or can you hear them while driving? I hear very little noise in the cabin doing 60-70 on the highway, I do hear a little (not absolutely silent) but very quiet. Steering tightens up at higher speeds but I do notice a tiny bit of extra steering required on the highway, but if you just go straight all is fine if you place the wheel in the proper spot, I do wish there were a bit more feedback. As for the passenger seat, I don't mind because I don't plan on sitting there

I found the digital kph readout handy on my vacation to Canada- made figuring out if I was speeding or not easy, and I didn't have to change any settings.

Congrats on your new Cadenza, Rodney!
To me the cabin noise is very low, but this also depends on the actual road condition. On nice smooth pavement, there is hardly any noise at all. If the pavement is aged through a few winters of gravel/studded snow tires, the road noise is noticeably louder. I think it's still much quieter than many other cars in those same conditions.
The steering I find to be similar. If the roads are smooth the steering is fine. Where I don't like it is on a freeway that is crowned from heavy traffic use. Then it seems to wander a bit in the grooves.
I have the SXL and do wish the passenger seat had more adjustment. Glad to hear they are adding that to the 2015 model.
I am disappointed in the quality of the audio when using Sirius. It sounds so much better playing from my iPod using the USB port. I think that has more to do with the digital format from Sirius though than the stereo.
I've had mine for about 5 months now and still really enjoy driving it. I'm more of a casual driver so I'm not pushing hard into the curves or chirping my tires when the light turns green. No issues to date and hoping this holds true for much longer as I read some of the problems other members have been having.

From my Cadenza I'm not experiencing those cons. I've not seen any interior spots with awful fit. Tires are quiet, just drove home tonight at 80MPH for about 50 miles, the interior of the cabin is really quiet and really doesn't feel like I'm rolling at 80. Steering being light and constant corrections, not experienced that as well. People mention the passenger seat being low, but my wife (who's only 5'4") doesn't feel that way, she says it's no different than other vehicles. No issued with the digital readout, not sure what I'd want to look at the tiny display instead of the large analog. Not sure why it's there really Had our ride now for 6 months, 4,800 miles and still enjoying the ride. Got a great deal on the SLX, well under $40K.
